Thank you!
We're thankful for all the wonderful support we receive from the community of Yuma. The Humane Society of Yuma relies on the generous support of our volunteers, donors, and adopters.
And we're sure our shelter guests don't mind us speaking for them when we tell you that they, too, are sincerely grateful for your friendship and support.

John, Matthew, Joshua, Jason Magallanes visited our shelter in their Be-Humane t-shirts with their family to look for a new family member. We're thankful that Yuma's being humane!

Happy Thanksgiving!

THANK YOU

Community Outreach Coordinator Jamie Casselman visited Rancho Viejo Elementary last week to pick up some doggie blankets that the Student Council had made out of fleece as a service project. The student council adviser, Jenny Kaste, is also an HSOY volunteer. Thank you to Rancho Viejo Elementary Student Council for giving our dogs some extra warmth!

FEATURED KITTY Crackers & Bros.

Crackers and his two brothers, Munchy and Peanut are available for adoption at our PetSmart Adoption Center along with many other incredibly loving cats and kittens at both our shelter and at PetSmart. If you are looking for a new pet, please save a life by adopting a homeless animal who needs you. |

FEATURED PET Gilligan
This handsome fellow is named Gilligan. Gilligan, or "Gilli" for short, is around two years old and has a gentle giant appeal about him. He's like a big huggable teddy bear. Gilligan was saved off a busy street here in Yuma by one of our animal control officers. He had no tags, no collar, and no family ever came by looking for him. Gilligan, true to his name, is a goofy boy with a great personality and would make a wonderful furry family member. We have seen Gilligan be just as sweet as can be with adults and small children, he doesn't seem to mind any of the other dog's around him and he is pretty good about waiting to potty outside. So if you have room in your heart and home and you are looking for a big lovable dog...look no further Gilligan will be here waiting for you... here on Gilligan's Island!

FEATURED PET
Lobo
Take a look at this handsome dog. Lobo is a gorgeous, red Alaskan Malamute who we're guessing is around three years old. Lobo was a stray picked up the first week of this month wandering on the busy streets of Yuma. A week or so later, Lobo's family came in and identified him as their dog and gave us his real name Lobo. We got the big boy up to our spay and neuter clinic for the family to get his rabies vaccine , microchip and neutered. But sadly, for whatever reason his family never came back. So now Lobo is looking for love. He's very strong which is one of his breed's qualities. He's probably housebroken and knows "sit". So if you are looking for a new furry family member, save a life and adopt a shelter pet. Right now we are over full and these animals are all too sweet they deserve a second chance to love life!

SHOP AT ONE OF OVER 2,500 ONLINE STORES AND OUR PETS WIN!
Remember Yuma's homeless pets on Cyber Monday!
Cyber Monday is online commerce's version of Black Friday and our pets stand to cash in big if you take heed to this article!
Over the last few years, HSOY has raised over $3,000 just from supporters doing what they'd normally be doing online: searching and shopping.
How we've been able to do that is with GoodShop.com and GoodSearch.com.
GoodShop.com works with more than 2,500 stores (including Target, Apple, Petsmart etc..) and every time you purchase something, a percentage will be donated to us to help Yuma's homeless pets. And if that's not enough, GoodShop also offers over 100,000 of the most up-to-date coupons and free shipping offers so you can save money at the same time. It's win win.

GoodSearch is a Yahoo powered search engine which makes a donation to us each time you do a search.
Install your GoodShop/GoodSearch toolbar right now on your Firefox or Internet Explorer browser here.
While there isn't a toolbar available for Google Chrome, you can easily set GoodSearch as your default search provider by following the instructions at this link.
Refuse to install another toolbar? That's okay. Just be sure to link to the store of your choice from the GoodShop homepage before making the purchase.
